The new upload_attachment tool lets you upload files directly into an attachment field via Airtable's content API. Pass a base64 string, or just a public URL and the server will download, encode, and push it for you (up to 5 MB).

Security Precautions

Our infrastructure is encrypted and we encrypt your tokens. Please be aware that your MCP server link will have the same permissions as your PAT token. For security reasons, we recommend using a token with limited access. We recommend to use the server link only inside the MCP clients config files.

What You Can Do with Airtable MCP Server

The Airtable MCP (Model Context Protocol) server enables AI assistants to seamlessly interact with your Airtable bases. With this integration, you can query records, create new entries, update existing data, and perform complex operations across your tables using natural language commands.

Whether you're managing project data, customer information, or any structured content in Airtable, this MCP server acts as a bridge that allows AI tools to read, write, and analyze your data efficiently. Simply generate a secure link below and configure it in your AI assistant to get started.
